Yesterday from the mouth of David Hughes. Ealing Trailfinders it is.

Just that or anything about investment, "the way forward" ( I'm tempted to write "if there is one"), or anything else?

He just said. Next season Ealing Trailfinders, which will be much more viable. We cannot stay at The Hive because our deal is too restrictive.

At Ealing we shall be getting income streams from Matchday and Merchandise. Which in line with the fact we failed to make The Middle Eights is vital for The Club to survive.

Re: Ealing is the new venue : Sun Aug 09, 2015 3:51 pm  

Income streams from matchday will be low given the trend in recent years.

OK thanks. So it's a new beginning. Again.

Doesn't fill me with enthusiasm but we are where we are and none of us seems to have the power to change that.

According to twitters from disgruntled West Londoners, they will start coming again if its Ealing - seeing is believing, as they have us believe West London is where we should be PMSL.

As for Barnaby, whatever pseudonym, hes a bell and will always be so, regardless of what he calls himself. His name is Barnaby, he can cover that how he likes - maybe he is embarrassed - not sure.

PMSL? Pretty much the same number of people attended the first game under DH's sole ownership than have attended all season this year......Griffin Park was the only ground that we GREW attendances at and the leaked season ticket holder data showed that the vast majority of our regular attendees were based in West London. You may have a inion, but the facts and the data point to West London being where most of our fans live.

Not sure what you expect to gain from declaring my name on here, but it's hardly a secret given the amount of correspondence between me, the RFL and the club over the years coupled with the handful of Broncos friends I have on Facebook and even some on Linked In. I don't "hide" my identity and stand by everything that I have said regarding the club. As for being embarrassed of Barnaby as my name? Are you 5yrs old?
Does your need to "out me" stem from your inability to engage in reasoned debate?
